About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from The Coleoptera of the British Islands, Vol. 4: A Descriptive Account of the Families, Genera, and Species Indigenous to Great Britain and Ireland, With Notes as to Localities, Habitats, Etc;; Lamellicornia, Serricornia, Longicornia, Phytophaga

This series of coleoptera, as above mentioned, includes most of the largest beetles in the world, notably the great Goliath beetles, and others which nearly equal them in size; several authors have proposed to place them at the head of the whole order, partly on the ground of their size and development, and partly, in some cases, because of their internal structure; the question, however, requires very careful con sideration, and in the present state of our knowledge it is far better not to disturb the existing arrangement.
